    What's your favorite Worbla type? Brown, black, white, meshed, red?

    • @stormt1000
      @stormt1000 Před 5 lety +2

      I've always used the brown worbla and have used the black a couple of times. I'd really like to try the white worbla for detail work.

    • @PretzlCosplay
      @PretzlCosplay  Před 5 lety +2

      The white Worbla is really nice! What I also like about it is that the light colour makes it easier to draw details on it before you are going to make them. With the black Worbla you always need white or metallic markers but with the white Worbla you can basicaly just use a pencil to make markings on it.

    Which Lipstick do you use? It is a wondeful colour. I love your patterns and videos, trying one of your breastplates out of Foam this weekend. Wish me luck.

    Can you add resin on top of Worbla or will it have a weird reaction?

    • @PretzlCosplay
      @PretzlCosplay  Před 3 lety +1

      Worbla is just plastic, so I don't think it will have a weird reaction. You could definitely try it! I also think it will stick very well to it. But, resin tends to get warmer when it is curing (maybe not all resins, I don't know) so it may reshape the Worbla a bit? However, it may not be enough heat to actually shape the Worbla... So I think the only way to find out is to try it :3

    Hi, I love your channel. Can I ask you the best glue to use with Worbla and Styro foam please? I want to add jewels. I have been looking at two glues called B7000 and E6000, but it says it dissolves Styro foam. I would so appreciate advise? I am in the U.K. Thanks

    I love all your fur! As a curvy cosplayer you are def one of my cosplay idols. How are you attaching the fur? contact cement? Are they cut from a bolt or are they fur trims?

    • @crazisista06
      @crazisista06 Před 4 lety

      I just heard you say hot glue, hot glue never works well for me, would you recommend contact cement or maybe I am not using enough glue?

    @mirela1455 Před 5 lety

    Thanks a lot for your tips! I was wondering, does PVA primer make your breast plates last long? I have red that gesso is the way to go if you want to make your armor last years and years but yours still look amazing with primer on!

    • @PretzlCosplay
      @PretzlCosplay  Před 5 lety

      For me, it lasts very long. The first project I used it on was Celestia and that was in... 2016? And the breastplate still looks really nice. So I would say, yes! It works :)
